I don't know if they are doing the flash sales. Here is why from facebook:
customer: "since you guys won't be doing the facebook store flash sales at 3pm will you be adding the stuff that would've been apart of the flash sale on your regular site?! THANKS! xx"
Lilly Pulitzer: All of it was put up last night! Bummer we couldn't do the flash sale but now you have 12 items that wouldn't have been there otherwise

I ordered 4 dresses on Tuesday. Just by looking at them online, I know I'm going to have to get them taken in many places (I'm 5'7 but my chest is like a 36DD) so I ordered a size up, knowing that I'll have to get them taken in at the waist. This is fairly common for me. But now I'm also pretty sure I'm going to have to get the hem let out because most of their dresses are the same length and I err on the side of caution when it comes to being conservative (I'm a teacher). Luckily I did snag a maxi dress and hopefully I will be able to wear it with just a few seams at the waist.

Can anyone tell me how the shorts run? I wear size 2 in most J Crew shorts a 0 in the less structured ones. Would I be safe ordering a 2 in Lilly? Thanks!

@IndianaSigKap--If they're anything like their dresses, the 0 is more like a normal 2 and the 2 is like a 4. I normally wear a 0 in dresses and thus got a 0 in Lilly...it was huge.

I think they run small in the bust area, but it varies by style. The strapless style seems to run the smallest.

Thank you! If I decide to get it, I'll order up and I'll have to get it tailored anyways to fit the rest of me. If it's an absolute disaster, there's always ebay

UGH! I had never ordered online and thus didn't know about the processing time. I wanted a dress by Saturday and bought two day shipping. It still hasn't shipped yet so I guess it won't make it.

Got my first order yesterday!

It's a dress that I will probably have to get taken in a bit, but since I will probably not wear it til next summer, I won't do anything until then. (I HOPE I'll still have to take it in next summer instead of leaving it as is...lol) Oh and best thing that I didn't realize until I put it on... POCKETS!!!!!!!!!

Now I'm awaiting order #2. I never got shipping confirmation and the order says processing still. I ordered it less than 24 hours than my first order. The thing I am concerned about is that I initially saw that I was charged twice for my order. I didn't dispute it immediately because I have learned that my bank seems to straighten things out on its own if I give it time. Now neither charge is there AND my dress charge is gone. Something is suspicious. I'm sending a note to make sure my order went through. I don't care how long it takes, as long as I get what I ordered...

All four of my orders still say "processing"

I'm so anxious to get my new stuff. I ordered two dresses, a pair of shorts and the straw hat!

^ One of my orders shipped and has already arrived. I just got the shipping confirmation for the second order so just hold out for a few days. I think they're inundated with orders.

Someone on the Lilly FB page said that they asked them why some orders take so long, and others don't, and their response was that some items aren't actually in their warehouse--they're shipping them from physical stores! So if your items were in the warehouse, they probably will/went out way sooner than if your item was actually located in some random location.

Also--hope everyone loves the free gift!
